Starting 2024 off with a bang. I have a Federal Model 14 I am looking to sell. Its gonna need some TLC but does work, could use a good cleaning and the motor is abit chatty. Light is missing its rubber gasket for the dome, Amber dome is 6/10, scratches and typical wear for used...

First off Happy Turkey Day! I just got this delivered to me, thanks to a buddy of mine. Shout out to Butch, if he decides to pop in this thread.. thanks again. Doing a quick overview before I get the food coma, plus it will give me another reason to be someplace other then where the...

Ok folks looking for a Green Teardrop style light.. with a kicker.. preferably on the cheap. I don't want vintage or collectible because I am going to be modifying it for future project. Cord cutting possibly drilling the base.. etc. I see that Star/SVP still makes the 1166 so that...

Found this little guy on Craigslist.. apparently some people still do post there.. Tested and working, SN is 1A10N8 which thanks to @stansdds decoder puts this as 6V DC, Magnetic mount, 58-69, with a build date of November of 1958. Its a survivor that is for sure. Only thing...

And another one to add to the project pile... Looks like I am officially in the Code 3 PSE wave of lights.. as the current last 3 have all been Code 3. Not local to me, thanks to a buddy for grabbing this one. At this point all I have done was give it a bath.. Red/Blue Front cutouts...

Interesting FB Marketplace find. Excellent overall condition, appears to be never mounted possibly display only. Clear Late Model SD Minibar, with the XL5K style rotators and Blue filters. I am used to seeing these bars rebranded Galls and Traffic Buster or some other silliness. To...

Wrapping up my latest acquistions, I present a Code 3 LP6000 with some heavily yellowed domes. Interesting thing is this is the long speaker grille version, so LP6000 long. Kind of uncommon. It is outfitted with 1 stingray, that works at least as of this moment. Departments only using 1...

I located this one on FB Marketplace, seller hit me back after the first person fell through. We ALL know how much I love Whelen Products!!! o_O I figured I would dig into it abit, as it was a mess on the outside with signs of possible mouse activity. So I gave it a bath, and it was as...

Sup all, I have some parts from a 72" AeroHawk that I am looking to move. I accept paypal and Ca$h, shipping prices are not included. I am open to offers within reason. PM if interested. Also adding I tend to get alot of really *ahem* silly questions, I cannot answer manufacturer...

Found this one on Facebook Marketplace. Amused me enough to need a thread...

So I have managed to get my hands on a Federal Model Q Siren. And that is about all I know about it. Looking for a crash course, it has no tag, was mounted flush so no pedestal or engine housing. Does have a Brake and I have been hesitant to power it up because its likely to take...

Specifically Model 14 beacons with a Rando Skybolt apparently. Summer has been pretty quiet for me, but I seem to have spent it finding Model 14 beacons. As I have noticed in the past these things tend to go in trends.. at 1 point there were Model 11s, then Twinsonics, and as of late...

Mods feel free to move if this is not the place. I am working with a gentleman who does not have PC or internet access and is looking to sell some vintage and collectible items. If interested in any of these, please PM me and I will forward his contact information. For obvious reasons I...

AeroDynic Project Bar for sale. Model 24 EAH-T Needs a few things to make it 100%, great starter bar for someone's project. Tested and working. $300 plus S/H from 18018 or you can come get it. PM if interested. Rob

Just coming back from Das Awkscht Fescht (good luck pronouncing it, I tried and failed horribly) and managed to locate 2 things worth of interest. Not sure how I did on the Traffic Master, but both look like they will clean up very nicely. Need to do some testing which is coming up next.

Here's an interesting present I just received from a Buddy in Japan. Patlite Model KW-12, this beacon or something similar is actually required by law to be with a motor vehicle in Japan. Purple in Japan is the equivalent to Amber in the US. This beacon would be deployed outside and away...

Selling this MX bar, $200 firm plus shipping. https://elightbars.org/forums/threads/mx7k-sunday-fun.96340/ I will be at Spring Melt in Allentown PA this Sunday 4/23 and can bring it. Lowers need a clean and polish, bar is used but works. I am unable to test the traffic advisor as I...

With my selling of MX7K parts I figured I would pull this one down from the shelf and give it abit of lovin. The domes polished up REALLY nice, I would need to address the lowers as well, but the uppers came out sharp. Newer version of the MX series, has an Arrow Stick in the rear, and I...

Mostly Code 3 PSE MX parts here.. I don't have set prices, so lets deal. Some Federal Amber Jetstream gaskets and center lenses. As the Mrs. would say time to get rid of this $%^&! Shipping would be additional and all items are in USED AS-IS condition. Thanks, Rob I will be...

I am wandering into uncharted lands for me. Looking for information about this siren, Model O. 12V Mechanical Siren and that is about all I know about this device. Value? Age? Worth picking up? Rob

So found abit of a Franken beacon, a friend of mine came across what he thought was a unity RV-45. Not quite, it was a unity shell with a Visall VP 488 at its core. So abit of googling and using my old man eyes, this looks like a rebranded KD 888 or similar. Beacon works, we...

With the ability to order domes coming to a close from Federal, I finally convinced one of my buddies to get off his arse and get this completed. I wanted to make a quick video showcasing the start point for this bar, overall its not really that bad mostly dirty but it does need some...

I have mount or shelf for pedestal mount devices on Apparatus. I have seen these with Q's and other sirens mounted to them, and 888's and other pedestal devices. If interested PM me. Thanks, Rob example.. Item in question.

Saturday April 22nd and Sunday the 23rd. Saturday is the auction, and Sunday is where the fun is at. Doors open @9AM for the Swap meet on Sunday, it mentions early access @7AM for certain ticket holders. https://unionhistoricalfiresociety.com/ I should be there Sunday like usual. Rob

Rebranded SVP 1168, newer generation. Found this locally at a Yard Sale today.

Looking for a Liberty endcap see attached picture. Has the alley light window, UPS decided to get this one during shipping. PM with what you have. Thanks, Rob

So I am trying to figure out why a Whelen deputy will rotate, but not light the lamp. I would assume that something silly is going on, bulb tests good, and a quick test with a multimeter shows continuity. My first guess was bad ground with bulb hanging upside down but meter rules that...

I went looking for something else and stumbled across a set of domes that had eluded me. So I dug out one of my 22H project bars and gave it a once over, then tossed these domes on it. Thanks to my buddy in TN for these guys, pretty much every color possible minibar. Was in the process...

The Mrs. just found this at Hobby Lobby of all places.. got a kick out of it, I am now the proud owner of a 74 CPD Monaco.. with a Skybolt bar! Or more accurately the closest I will ever come to owning either of them, lets be real. I am thinking about painting the can lights blue for...
